Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Hampshire County Council involves the project "Various Properties - Water Heater Upgrades East Area - Upper." This tender focuses on the construction industry with specific works related to the installation and replacement of gas-fired hot water heaters across six school sites. Located in the UK, specifically in the regions of Winchester and Southampton, the procurement process reached completion on 13th July 2026 with the contract signed on 10th July 2026. The procurement followed a selective method and was below the threshold, being awarded under a framework agreement. The resulting contract, valued at £75,066, will run from 3rd August 2026 to 4th September 2026.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in mechanical engineering installation works. Businesses specialising in plumbing, heating equipment installation, or asbestos removal, particularly within the sub-central government public authority sector, could significantly benefit from such opportunities. Companies such as CEI Electrical Services Ltd, an SME based in Southampton, exemplify the type of business well-suited to compete successfully for awards in this domain. This contract allows for skill application in a niche market, possibly leading to further engagements with public sector bodies like Hampshire County Council.
